Interconverts between ordered lists and compact string notation. Useful for capturing code lists, and pair-wise codes and decodes, for text storage. Analogous to factor levels and labels. Generics encode() and decode() perform interconversion, while codes() and decodes() extract components of an encoding. The function encoded() checks whether something is interpretable as an encoding. If a vector has an encoded guide attribute, as_factor() uses it to coerce to factor.

This package provides measures to characterize the complexity of classification and regression problems based on aspects that quantify the linearity of the data, the presence of informative feature, the sparsity and dimensionality of the datasets. This package provides bug fixes, generalizations and implementations of many state of the art measures. The measures are described in the papers: Lorena et al. (2019) <doi:10.1145/3347711> and Lorena et al. (2018) <doi:10.1007/s10994-017-5681-1>.

DNA methylation (6mA) is a major epigenetic process by which alteration in gene expression took place without changing the DNA sequence. Predicting these sites in-vitro is laborious, time consuming as well as costly. This EpiSemble package is an in-silico pipeline for predicting DNA sequences containing the 6mA sites. It uses an ensemble-based machine learning approach by combining Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF) and Gradient Boosting approach to predict the sequences with 6mA sites in it. This package has been developed by using the concept of Chen et al. (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz015>.

This package provides a tool for conducting exact parametric regression-based causal mediation analysis of binary outcomes as described in Samoilenko, Blais and Lefebvre (2018) <doi:10.1353/obs.2018.0013>; Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2021) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwab055>; and Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2023) <doi:10.1002/sim.9621>.

Allows users to model and draw inferences from extreme value inflated count data, and to evaluate these models and compare to non extreme-value inflated counterparts. The package is built to be compatible with standard presentation tools such as broom', tidy', and modelsummary'.

Maximum likelihood estimation of an extended class of row-column (RC) association models for two-dimensional contingency tables, which are formulated by a condition of reduced rank on a matrix of extended association parameters; see Forcina (2019) <arXiv:1910.13848>. These parameters are defined by choosing the logit type for the row and column variables among four different options and a transformation derived from suitable divergence measures.

This package contains a set of clustering methods and evaluation metrics to select the best number of the clusters based on clustering stability. Two references describe the methodology: Fahimeh Nezhadmoghadam, and Jose Tamez-Pena (2021)<doi:10.1016/j.compbiomed.2021.104753>, and Fahimeh Nezhadmoghadam, et al.(2021)<doi:10.2174/1567205018666210831145825>.

Implementation of the Edge Selection Algorithm for undirected graph selection. The least angle regression-based algorithm selects edges of an undirected graph based on the projection of the current residuals on the two dimensional edge-planes. The algorithm selects symmetric adjacency matrix, which many other regression-based undirected graph selection procedures cannot do.

This package provides tools to analyse human and mosquito behavioral interactions and to compute exposure to mosquito bites estimates. Using behavioral data for human individuals and biting patterns for mosquitoes, you will be able to compute hourly exposure for bed net users and non-users, and summarize (e.g. proportion indoors and outdoors, proportion per time periods, and proportion prevented by bed nets) or visualize these dynamics across a 24-hour cycle.

Model fitting and species biotic interaction network topology selection for explicit interaction community models. Explicit interaction community models are an extension of binomial linear models for joint modelling of species communities, that incorporate both the effects of species biotic interactions and the effects of missing covariates. Species interactions are modelled as direct effects of each species on each of the others, and are estimated alongside the effects of missing covariates, modelled as latent factors. The package includes a penalized maximum likelihood fitting function, and a genetic algorithm for selecting the most parsimonious species interaction network topology.
